Wilson said that he and his firm pay close attention to a
startup's social-media presence and how it's performing.

“When we consider making an investment, we run a bunch of social
analytics reports on the company,” Wilson said.

Wilson also said that even though Facebook
has lost billions in value since going public, he is still
confident in the social network's strategy.

What Facebook did first was build a strong user base, and then
focus on monetization.

“Facebook is worth $40 billion today and they make $5 billion in
revenue a year, that is not a failure, that is a success,” Wilson
said, adding that he's becoming "more confident every day that
that is the right strategy.”
